President-elect Joe Biden was held in a joint meeting of the Senate and House of Representatives to confirm the victory of President-elect Donald Trump.
The U.S. Congress held a joint Senate and House meeting at 1 p.m. local time on the 6th to certify the results of the state elections vote and confirm Biden as the elect.
However, in the morning, protesters in support of Trump, who had been protesting against Biden’s certification near the parliament, crossed the barricade and intruded into the parliament.
The police even mobilized tear gas, but could not stop the protesters, and the protesters went inside the Capitol.
In the process, a physical conflict occurred, and one woman was shot and killed, killing all four, according to the US media.
Eventually, the situation ended in four hours after being put in by the National Defense Forces, and the meeting resumed at around 8:00 pm, two hours later.
“We have been attacked by an unprecedented democracy,” said Biden. “It is not protests, not protests, that threaten the security of elected officials.”
President Trump also said, “We must obey law and order,” and said, “Go home now,” but immediately before the incident, he said, “I will not give up, I will never surrender to the presidential election,” and defended the protesters as “patriots” right after the incident. While doing this, the theory of responsibility is emerging.
In the midst of this, Trump’s favorite social media Twitter has temporarily suspended President Trump’s Twitter account, saying, “We have repeatedly and seriously violate election-related regulations.”
Twitter warned that “after deleting the offending Tweet, it will be suspended for 12 hours,” and “for further violations, it will be permanently suspended.”
